What is an Oldboy? How do you feel about Greek Tragedies? How did Choi Min-Sik achieve that iconic (and insane) hairstyle? Was giving the 2004 Palme d’Or to FAHRENHEIT 9/11 over this film one of the greatest mistakes in the history of arts and culture? All those questions answered and more as critic Alison Willmore joins us to talk about OLDBOY, the first major Korean breakthrough in the American filmbro canon.  Guest Links:  Read Alison's writing at New York Magazine Especially “Theory: Top Gun: Maverick Is (Mostly) a Death Dream” if you haven’t already Follow Alison’s dog on Instagram Join our Patreon for franchise commentaries and bonus episodes.
